* Switches away from the ESM-incompatible & unmaintained `ts_devserver`
to `http_server`. This is the canonical server maintained by dev-infra
* Switches tests away from CommonJS specific logic. e.g. require.resolve
* Adjusts tests to work with Protractor spec bundling (Protractor does
not support ESM execution, but we want to take ESM-written specs)
* Reworks playground and benchmarks to use `app_bundle` and `esbuild`
instead of loading hundreds of files individually. This also makes
tests more stable and more aligned with real applications.
PR Close#48521
nodejs rules 0.34.0 now includes protractor_web_test_suite rule (via new @bazel/protractor rule) so we switch to that location for that rule in this PR so that /packages/bazel/src/protractor can be removed in a future PR
this PR also brings in node toolchain support which was released in nodejs rules 0.33.0. this is a prerequisite for RBE for mac & windows users
bazel schematics also updated with the same. @bazel/bazel 0.28.1 npm package includes transitive dep on hide-bazel-files so we're able to remove an explicit dep on that as well.
